Hive

Totally worth seeing. The strength, hardship, tolerance, stubbornness and dignity, integrity of these women fighting for whatever little money, the main character struggling to put food on the table, and being labeled a traitor! It's outrageous how the men sitting in their cafes doing nothing don't accept her willingness to work, so hard! And her children growing up in this environment one day they'll understand the work their mother proudly soldiered on for them. Knowing full well her husband wasn't coming back. Damn the war, all the pointless killings of men women children, the old the young, the unborn, such love and care comes out in the end, for the power of love will eventually prevail...xx.

Kosovo's official entry to 2022's Oscars is amazing, authentic, emotional and powerful. Its true story is beautiful, interesting and well written. It beautifully tackles important topics like how hard it is to be a strong independent woman in a sexist patriarchal society, and to wait for those who are lost in the war. All portrayed in a beautifully simple, real and moving way. Cinematography is stunning. Lead performance is Oscar-worthy. It's one of the year's best international films.

Important (true) story of the painful aknowledgement of a husband lost to an unjust war and an equally painful struggle to be respected and allowed to work (being a woman) for the sake of one's family. Well played and well directed, not sure though why this film won the Sundance Festival as best international film.

An excellent Oscar submission from Kosovo- "Hive" tells the true story of Fahrije Hoti: a woman who suffered greatly, losing her husband in the Kosovo war and fighting for financial independence and security for herself and her family.

Fahritje and her village neighbors struggle together to get up from adversity, directly eliminating the stigma of weak women who only depended on the role of men. Greatly acted and directed, the film tells the story of mothers who are strong and mentally steel. The real Wonder Women.

The beautiful rhyme grandpa was humming in the car.. was beautiful.. anyone knows ?

I wonder if Fahriye cried because It was Indeed her husband's clothes yet she couldn't except this or Indeed her husband's clothes yet she couldn't except this or they were really Not her husband's clothes And she understood did she would continue to suffer in the unknown faith and time..

real drama real life real people real feelings, and the strength of women, despite all the annoying ignorance of men in the earth..

Basholli did a good job playing with Fahriye's facial expression, which has been completely neutral very long... until she felt productive and able to stand up..
